    The Magic Room is run by local volunteers coming from a range of backgrounds in teaching and education with the support of other skilled volunteers.<\/h2>\n

    These volunteers provide routine and free learning opportunities for young girls who are not only disadvantaged by poverty and income inequality, caste, social and gender inequality.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    The volunteers support and develop the children based on the local curriculum in areas of: math, Hindi, English, history, social civics, science and geography, but also bring extra activities to the Magic Room including computer literacy, health, personal development, music, sport, art and drama.<\/p>\n
